You could have buried negative memories and/or emotions and thought you had let go of them long ago. If you do not speak your truth, you may swallow it and bury it deep within you. This quite often can cause your chakras to become unbalanced.

The following exercises have helped me and my clients and they may help you to let go. Blessings!

Find a quiet safe place and think back into your life as far back as you can remember. And then start thinking your way forward. Stop at each moment you remember about something and/or someone that seems to pick at your heart or your gut, then stop and really look at that moment in your life. Now speak out loud, in your head or write on paper how you felt then and how that affected your life from that point forward. After expressing your feelings surrounding that moment, say the following release statement:

"I release and ask for blessings for myself and anyone involved. I no longer am attached to those feelings. I am free and they are free." Take a deep breath and feel it leave you.

If you write on the paper, take that paper and wrap it around a small stick and go to a creek, river, ocean or lake and throw that stick as far out in the water as you can and say the release statement and take the deep breath and feel it leave you as you turn your back on the water and walk away. Ask that the situation be blessed

Now move forward to the next event or memory and do the same with each memory until you reach the present moment.

Remember you do not have to accept what others believe as your belief. If it does not feel right to you, then ask yourself if it feels like truth to you.

You can tell others that you understand that they have their beliefs and feelings of what is right for them, but they are not right for you. Tell them you respect their beliefs and ask that they do the same for you; and leave it at that. .

Anytime you feel that someone is bringing or sending negative energies into your space, just brush it off and state that it is not yours.

As we enter a new year, I am blessed to be able to take this opportunity to wish everyone the most abundantly full year ever.

Remember that if you do not ask, you do not allow yourself to receive. Open your heart and ask and know you will receive.

Whatever has been pulling at your heart, open up and let it in. Know that you are capable of accomplishing anything you desire. You are all truly blessed as pure and perfect creations. Believe and open your heart to all possibilities.

Take a look at the negative way you may be seeing and feeling everything in your life, look at the real truth of it.

Don't blame anyone, not even yourself and let go of any guilt.

Accept each experience in your life as a stepping stone to a greater awareness of how your life can be more filled with understanding.

Examine each situation and experience for what it truly is, forgive and release without blaming yourself or someone else just because you think it should be or should have been done differently.

It is what it is and how you accept it is your own responsibility.

Become aware of negative thoughts and actions and replace them with positive and allow yourself to see life in an entirely different light.

Remember what you think or focus on is what you will get (law of attraction).

As soon as we are aware of any negativity in our lives, if we change it around to a positive aspect right away, we will understand it for what it truly is and deal with it in a positive way thereby bringing more of what we truly desire into our lives.

If you truly believe and feel it that you are one with whatever Higher Power you believe in, then you will see things as they truly are and release all negativity thereby allowing only positive thoughts, actions and energy in as well as sending positive out.

There are no failings, only steps to infinite peace and harmony.

Even the most positive spiritually centred person can still have negative issues occur.

How it is perceived and dealt with makes the difference.

Don’t give energy to the negative.

Ask yourself what did I do or think to bring about this situation and what can I do to change it so that it will be positive, even if all you can do is let go of it.

No matter what the situation, give thanks for it, because there was a reason for it. Remember we only get stronger.
